This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff
United States
So close, but yet so far
Today, I had to explain to a woman I didn't know that my husband was killed overseas. She replied, "I know exactly how you feel, my dog died last month." FML

Some people just don't know what they're saying.

She was trying to be nice, don't be too hard on her. Sorry for your loss though.

Your comment : Really? It's not really nessissary to have a debate on weather others can sympathize with OP or not when trying to give their condolences. No matter who you are, death still hurts everyone.

Maybe her and her dog were really close. She may not be married and her dog kept her from being lonely. Maybe she does know how you feel

Wooowww FYL OP, I hate it when someone tries to compare losses to someone else's bigger loss.

People can be horrible with trying to sympathize with others.

1. I'm so sorry for your loss. 2. I'm not sure I'd go comparing it to losing a husband, but there are a lot of people, myself included, who consider their pets family and are truly devastated when their pets die.
